Light up the Season

Loyalist Township is proud to be hosting the 22nd annual "Light up the Season" event!

Join us for an afternoon of traditional holiday fun, including horse-drawn wagon rides, cookies and hot chocolate, music, ornament making, and a visit from some special Holiday helpers. Trees located throughout Fairfield Park will be wrapped with lights, which will be turned on for the first time on Saturday, November 23, opening up "Light up the Season" and lit nightly until early February.

Honouring Traditions

The most cherished memories of the holidays are the traditions we share with our family, friends and neighbours. Over twenty years ago, a local community group came up with the idea of decorating two little trees at the Fairfield House, one with white lights and the other with colored lights. With lots of helping hands this idea grew into Light Up the Season, an event for the entire community to gather together and enjoy an evening of old-fashioned Holiday spirit.
